Final Reflection

1. Poli Sci this year has taught me a lot about not only politics, but how politics relates to basically everything in life. Throughout this semester, I have learned that the only way to see change in the world is to get out and make a difference. I have also learned that politics does not just involve the government, but it is mostly the people thats make a difference. The speech was very moving, and it made me realize that no matter what happens in life whether good or bad, you need to live with a purpose.

2. Some "portable skills" i will take away from this course is to not sit on the sidelines and let the world pass you by. If you are one of these people, you have no room to judge the actions of politicians. If you want to see change, you have to be the change. Every vote counts, and US citizens have rights thats no one else in the world has and we need to use them to their full potential. I will also take away the passion from this course. Living with passion and for a purpose is the most important thing you could ever do.
